I am a North Carolina, USA native who loves to travel! I went to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and graduated in 2018. Since then, I have worked in several states as an Environmental Educator and I love introducing children and people of all ages to the wonders of the outdoors. My husband Christian and I met at Chapel Hill and bonded over our interest in people, other cultures, and other countries.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I just got married in April 2023 and me and my husband are looking forward to traveling the world again. We love to go new places together and love the chance to meet local people. We Couchsurfed in 2018 and gained lifelong friends and memories and cannot wait to hopefully meet new and interesting people again! He has also hosted people via Couchsurfing. When we Couchsurf, we love to get to know our hosts and to contribute in some way since we are so appreciative for the place to stay.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I studied abroad in Mongolia for three and a half months and while there I lived for 10 days with a nomadic herding family in their ger and helped herd their 1000 animals
